After your fight with Eros, you will be stuck chasing your final opponent.

Phase One:Your enemy will take the form of an arachnid, not too much bigger than you. The attacks are simple, a lunging bite, and a web attack that holds you in place. Just dodge with LT to avoid all the attacks, running in for as many X or Y blows as possible until her health bar is depleted, making you give chase once more.

Phase Two:Give chase back over the rising ground. Note that when going up against the things that look like aliens, it’s easy to take them out using the hammer by jumping with A then pressing X. This will stun them and give you a moment to swing with the hammer using Y to hit as many as possible. Also remember to press B to attack from a distance when they first appear.

The next match looks like a Dragon. The tactic is about the same, avoid the claws with LT when they attack you. This thing also charges towards you, which usually caters to a three slice attack. When it jumps up into the air, avoid it by rolling back as it will come crashing down on top of you if you don’t. Remember to use your crossbow with B if you have a clean shot.

Phase Three:Give chase to final Phase of this boss/achievement once again until you reach stage of the Forsaken Land. When you do, you will now have to fight two spiders (Phase One), and the previous Dragon-like creature (Phase Two) at the same time. Follow the methods laid out in the previous two battles, and use your Rune Attacks with RT and any Rage you have built up with LB and RB, although you probably won’t need to use the latter of the first two. If you do enough dodging with LT and firing with the crossbow using B, you should easily be able to take these enemies out by now. Deplete the health bar, and the achievemetn will unlock during the cut scene.

Thumbs up if it helped you.
